Echoing below, The most effective time to use Roundup (glyphosate) on trees and shrubs is in the fall, just before, or as the leaves are turning. At that time all the chlorophyl and other nutrients in the leaves are breaking down and being translocated to the roots for winter storage. With all the movement from the stem to the roots, more of the glyphosate makes it to the roots. I use it on poisson ivy in September (Massachusetts) and it kills 99 percent every time. I would cut the russian olive early-mid summer so the growth is low (to make it easier to spray) but robust when fall comes around. Then spray with Roundup or other glyphosate product that also contains surfacants (makes the herbicides stick to the leafs better) at the highest recommeded concentration.
